On the 4th OF April we made
a grand occasion in Dress Ma

as we'll as our friends.
Our experience has taught
us more of our own organiza-
ton than we ever knew before.
The array of our own Dress
and Silk Goods, when fairly
brought out, like an army in
review, taught us the power of
our own goOds-gathering.

The Untrimmed Millinery
will not escape you. Never
before so much in straw to
please the eye. The little tur-
ban shapes everywhere; they
are the mass, and one extreme.
GainsbOrough effects they
are the few now, the other ex-
treme. Between, many.
For children, "Aats" as we'll ;
and the "Russian Crown" odd
is pretty.
A novelty OF the novelties
you'll see best in the un-
trimmed. Not French, Yam
kee. Seems the lightest Of all
the bonnets, almost the per-
tiest. Crocheted stuff, stiffened
as by varnish. Call it "Rus-

to nothing as the old time
'Neapolitan' of braided horse
hair. Black and colors, both
beaded and plain.

THE MARQUETTE MINING JOURNAL Of

morning, the first number OF the Daily
Mining Journal made it's appearance.
Firm friends Of the Mining Journal proph-
esied failure for the venture, saying that
in Attempting to start daily paper with
press reports here there was no posi-
bility OF success and that the result
would be the ruin OF IA valuable weekly
possessed OF wide circulation. The
publishers had studied the situation
carefully and were decidedly Of the OPP
posite opinion. The result has vindi-
Gated the soundness Of their judgement.
The Daily Mining Journal, three years
old to-day, has articulation greater than
ats publishers expected to secure in five
years, il has been twice enlarged, and
from 7-column folio az started, il is
now a 6-column quarto, cut, pasted and
folded on it's own machinery and apaper
which in appearance and value, as u
medium OF news, iustifies thecompliment
daily paid it by the people OF Marquette
and the Upper Peninsula when they say
they are proud of it. Although twice
enlarged, the demand for advertising
space in it's columns is so great that this
week number Of advertisers have been
refused space in il simply because no
room could be found orthem. The pub
fishers confess To a feeling OF pride in the
career Of the three-year-old and hope be-
fore it's fourth birthday arrives TO make
the paper still more valuable and still
more attractive
